An O? A bloody O?

How on Earth did I manage to get an O on this assignment? I did everything in my power to fail this - I even included the bit about juggling puffskeins, for Helga's sake. And what about those people who actually need this class and can't afford to do this sort of protest, and who got bad marks? Bloody cow

Am I good at feigning anger? Need you ask?

Private to Johnson

[newt_stebbins]

I guess I don't.

He still hasn't eaten the effin cake yet. Neither of them have. Why can't he just fucking eat the effin cake?

Curse you blokes and your lack of a sweet tooth. I should have hidden it inside of a big red juicy stake instead.

Well, I would have eaten the bloody thing, if I were in their place, so I don't think it's a gender thing.

Look on the bright side - the longer it takes, the less they'll suspect.

Pah. Prefects.

Fine.

[newt_fawcett]

Look on the bright side. How many people would want to be in the position where they have to actually try to fail an assessment?

[newt_stebbins]

I suppose - but even so, the fact that she gave me an O after I enumerated things that would make Quirrell and Lockhart roll their eyes makes me fear her judgement and lack of sanity even more than I did before.

[newt_fawcett]

You don't know the half of it. I suppose so. I can see where you're naffed off at the principle of it, yeah.

[newt_stebbins]

And let's not forget the fact that Travers got an O as well. If we'd both received Ts I'd understand - but I find this to be seriously insulting.

[newt_george]

I think this illustrates conclusively that our answers were more fiendishly ridiculous than yours.

[newt_stebbins]

Quite the contrary. I think this illustrates conclusively that the Pink Creature casts her grades according to people's families and political opinions rather than the ridiculousness of one's answers.

Go on, you bastard. Eat the bloody cake.

[newt_barney]

Wow. I got an A.

[newt_stebbins]

That's quite good, considering the stupidity of what we had to write about. However, since I was aiming for a T and wrote such gems as "pretend to be a statue," "take off your clothes and dance around them while shrieking loudly" and "use Rolf Scamander's socks to knock them out," even an A would be absurd for me - let alone an O.

[newt_barney]

That's pretty funny.

[newt_stebbins]

Thank you. That was indeed my goal. Unfortunately the Creature believed this to be serious (and accurate) work, but as long as others see the humour in this I'm glad.
